Lister commented; “Since joining Kane, a major focus of my role has been servicing Kane Bermuda’s ILS business – which has grown significantly, especially during 2013. As a member of the Kane team, we have worked diligently on providing investors and sponsors with innovative solutions and services, and I believe we have played, and continue to play, an important role in the growth of the jurisdiction’s alternative reinsurance market.”
